The lock is unnecessary and potentially unsafe:
1) All gain_control accesses in AudioProcessingImpl happen - and are intended to happen - while holding the crit_capture_ lock, and all external API calls take the same lock once inside GainControlImpl.
2) If ProcessCaptureStreamLocked (locked by crit_capture) calls a gain_control function that takes crit_render, the mandated locking order (render before capture) is violated and we might get a deadlock with the render thread.
